We decided early on that if we were going to defend the "team experience", we had to defend all of it. As they say, "the squeaky wheel gets the grease." We need as many voices behind this as we can get. As for signatures, we got a handful over night, but not much. Also Pineapple reddit. If the guys in that thread had put half the energy into teaming up with each other as they have blasting us for teaming up, we wouldn't be in this situation.

I guess I don't understand how to use Reddit, but I can't find anything Biggles posted on that 500% better thread.

All I did was go to Biggles post history and upvoted every single one of his comments. I figured that was easier than digging through that thread and getting frustrated anyway. https://www.reddit.com/user/TheBigL032

I got frustrated at first when I read it last night, but this is a net gain for us. We're getting unrelated folks arguing in support of us, asking for reasonable things like a separate means for teams to match.

I'm ignoring all the comments about farming, because 343 does not care about farming. They only care about blowout games because blowouts result in little REQ use.

This helps us because it means more people are going to read the letter and respond. We're getting more attention for people trying to troll us than we ever got on our own.

Let BigL handle that thread. In the words of Ursula K. Le Guin, "One voice, speaking truth is a greater force than fleets and armies, given time; plenty of time."

At this point, its let Biggles run damage control, make friends, and stay away. That is an amazingly ignorant thread.

The problem with BigL handling the thread, is that his comments are being downvoted into "below threshhold", where the comments are automatically hidden.

They can viewed by simply clicking them, don't worry about that. It's actually good exposure. It's bring attention to our petition so players who agree with us will see it. They won't be swayed by that guys terrible arguments or good posts being downvoted.

Only one has so far and it reached -22 at one point. Now its at -13 or so and climbing. So, this means people are seeing my other posts and going back to that one to see what I had to say and some are still upvoting it. It'll work out in the end. Out of the 20 some posts I've made, all but that one are positive.

One guy has mentioned and it's rather obvious to me...post in reddit r/gaming....rather than focusing on the population of halo itself, why not focus on the ENTIRE gaming community as a whole for support....however outside of halo and use those additional opinions for help....that could work, but we'd need someone good at writing up the issue at hand....I cannot do that, or I would....let the casual halo gamers take on the entire gaming community....but don't make the point so entitled, more like a proposal to gauge interest on the subject...
